Getting some Art action

Point Rouge is one of a few recent Galleries in St. Henri, today they had a 'working exhibit'; around 8 artist working on pieces, all different styles, textures etc. One the better contemporary galleries I've been too, they've always got a great point of vue...(there pun, not mine) Point Rouge, 2471 Notre Dame (east of Atwater)

A fantastic lecture/reading by Barbara Kingsolver and her husband&daugher at McGill about their experience and new book Animal,Vegetable,Miracle. Nothing earth-shattering but they are very creative, humourous people who now live sustainably off their farm.

Not sure what all the whining was about, Darjeeling Limited is what it is...I like this review, particularly "an odd, flawed, but nonetheless beautifully handmade object as apt to win affection as to provoke annoyance. You might say that it has sentimental value." yep.

Also La Vie en Rose was fantastic (but tragic), you'll never heard Edith Piaf the same way again.

The Point of You

Every encounter begs for
the point of you

The catalyst who moves to
reflect, revel, recant, react(?)

Waking up unsure of
the point of you,
I continue to shift my perspective.
